taintedtyphoon Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 Would anyone be willing to turn a list of what I have into a somewhat functioning list? I apologize if this seems very lazy on my part! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squark Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 We can't very well do that without a list of what you have, but sure, go for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heres what ive got: -Stardrake -Yndrasta x2 -Bastian -Gotrek -Knight Azyros -Knight Venator -Lord Aquilor -Lord Celestant on Dracoth -Lord Arcanum -Lord relictor -Lord imperitant -Knight Vexillor with apotheosis banner -Knight Arcanum x3 -Knight Questor 30 Vindicators 9 Annihilators 6 Praetors 10 Liberators 3 Prosecutors 3 Retributors 4 vanguard palladors 5 Vanguard hunters 3 Vanguard raptors 2 Ballista 3 Evocators on Dracoline Proper mish mash Edited January 27, 2022 by taintedtyphoon forgotten unit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squark Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 Okay, first question; Which variant are the Vanguard-Raptors, Annihilators, and Prosecutors? Their role varies depending on loadout. As far as proxies/purchases go, the main thing I notice is that you're light on ranged units, and you could use a knight-incantor. Having 6 Vanguard-Raptors or 10-15 Judicators is really helpful for list building. If you're looking for a competitive list, this is what I might try. You'd need another box of Vanguard-Raptors and have to use a Knight-Arcanum as a proxy (or just find one online for like ~ $10 USD) Allegiance: Stormcast Eternals - Stormhost: Knights Excelsior - Mortal Realm: Ghur - Grand Strategy: Hold the Line - Triumphs: InspiredLord-Imperatant (175)*Lord-Relictor (145)* - General - Command Trait: High Priest - Artefact: Mirrorshield - Prayer: TranslocationKnight-Incantor (125)* - Spell: Celestial Blades6 x Annihilators with Meteoric Grandhammers (480)* - Reinforced x 15 x Liberators (115)* - Heavens-wrought Weapon and Shield - 1x Grandweapons5 x Liberators (115)* - Heavens-wrought Weapon and Shield - 1x Grandweapons3 x Annihilators (200)*6 x Vanguard-Raptors with Longstrike Crossbows (480)* - Reinforced x 1Celestar Ballista (140)**Battle RegimentHoly Command: Thunderbolt VolleyTotal: 1975 / 2000Reinforced Units: 2 / 4Allies: 0 / 400Wounds: 86Drops: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skreech Verminking Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 Easily done. remove everything you own. Buy yourself a boxset of stormvermin and clanrats. have a look in your bitsbox, or that of your local store. take everything out that looks like a turret. build yourself 18 rattling gun weapon teams, and there you go! you’ve got yourself a skaven meta list, that definitely nobody was able to use. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

readercolin Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 To give a different list build - here is a potential "Castle" build that you could go for: Lord-Relictor - general, high priest, translocation, mirrorshield or arcane tome Yndrasta Gardus Steelsoul 6x Longstrikes 15x Vindictors 5x Vindictors 5x Vindictors 3x Annihilators (either variant, though I'm going to bet that you have the shielded ones) You are missing 2 things for this list - Gardus and 3x more Vanguard Raptors. The objective with this is to have Gavriel there to give his 5+ ward bubble, making your army notable tankier than it would be otherwise, and Yndrasta able to bring models back to either the vindictors or the longstrikes. This list wants to run Scions for the annihilators but if you want you can swap them out for another unit, though for gardus to be effective you will have to run Hallowed Knights. You can either run this as a battle regiment for the 1 drop, or as hunters + Command Entourage if you want to get a 2nd holy command. The plan with this list would be to sit back and shoot your opponents key pieces off and playing very defensively, and then once your opponents forces have been whittled down you can then move forward and take over the game. If you don't want to go the Gardus route, another option would be this: Lord-Relictor - general, high priest, translocation Yndrasta Lord-Imperitant 6x Longstrikes 10x Vindictors 3x Annihilators (shields) 3x Annihilators (shields) 3x Annihilators (shields) This list has to go Knights-Excelsior to make the annihilators battleline. But you have a defensive bubble with the Longstrikes, relictor, and vindictors forming a small castle, and then the annihilators coming down on turns 1-2-3, dealing mortals on impact, then charging in to pin a unit in place and do impact hits. Again, this list requires you to pick up another 3 vanguard raptors, but you have everything else. And once again, you can either run a battle regiment, or hunters + command entourage for either a holy command or a 2nd artefact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
